[PROBLEM] 9.3.5 Progress wheel click crash

[steve4star]

Using 9.3.5 if a song is playing and I click the progress wheel to advance the track position it causes playback to mute, but the timer continues. 

After that UI is frozen and I have to physically power cycle the Pi. 
Even clicking Quick Help just shows an empty screen with the (Close) button after it is muted.

I just tested a few times and am not seeing any issue.

Are the tracks local or on a NAS?
WiFi or Ethernet?
What client and Browser?

Hi Tim,

Tracks are on a NAS connected via WiFi.
The track that failed was a podcast MP3 of 58mins.

Just tried with a shorter FLAC 5 min track and it works as expected.

Hope that helps, Steve

ETA fails on Edge browser and directly attached SpI screen

Hi Tim, it takes several minutes to seek to the track position for the 58min track.
I clicked the new position and left it and it eventually played.

prolly a malformed or corrupt mp3 file.

ETA: you can try examining the MPD log but even if it shows indications of a bad file.

It is downloaded through AudioBookshelf to my NAS. 
I will check this evening. 
Audio Info looked correct in Moode. 

Are there any useful diagnostics I can run on the file ?

ETA: mpd log not showing any error

Try the command below.

Code:

file "PATH TO THE FILE"

@steve4star

If you're uncertain about the mp3 file you can zip it up, place the zip file on some accessible file service (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) and send the download link to @"Tim Curtis, @Nutul, and me in a private message via this forum. One of us will wring it out as well as try to repro your issue using it.

Regards,
Kent

Thanks in advance

I took a quick look and didn't see a problem with the file you provided. Its metadata contains a very long comment field (1084 840 bytes) but it plays on my moOde 9.3.5 and I can move forwards and backwards in the file using the "progress wheel" without any issue. 

However, it's only 18:58 minutes long, not 58 minutes. Is this the right file?

The filename is 'Ted'\''s Imola Podbook The title race, car upgrades & when we should judge Hamilton at Ferrari.mp3'
ETA - that's the same filename you showed in your last post but not the timing you stated early on.
ETA - I played it from my SDCARD, not from a NAS, but I don't know any details about your NAS.

Kent
